You might try Costco. They have RV tires but they do not mount them.

American Tire advertise they have RV tires, not sure how large they can accommodate though.

Try Chatsworth Tires on Devonshire in Chatsworth. Their phone # is
818/341-8631. Their prices are generally quite good and they have an excellent attitude.

I wish we had a Les Schwab in So Cal............but, no such luck!......I doubt you will beat Costco's prices if they have what you want........

Problem with Costco is you can buy tires from them, but they will not mount them. So now you will need a pick up truck to be able to pick them up and take them to a shop that will mount them. Then you need to get the MH to the tire shop that will mount them. And most tire shops want you to buy from them. A tire shop that is willing to mount tires you bought somewhere else is probably going to charge you more then a normal mounting charge as they want to make money too.
I will bet if you take the price of the Costco tire, add in the shop charge for mounting and balancing and then consider the PITA factor of having to load 6 120 lbs 22.5 tires in your truck to drop them off at the tire shop, then go get your MH you will find it cheaper to buy somewhere else.
I purchased my last set of MH tires from TCI tire centers which is a Michelin distributor, but they carry more then just Michelin tires. A matter of fact they suggested another brand of tire that was cheaper and better suited for my application and for how I use my MH.
